But your device was recognized through fastboot, what do you want to do now? Regards the drivers I referred in previous posts to the ones from Acer, not fastboot specific Acer drivers, such thing doesn´t exist.

Not all the fastboot commands work the same for all devices, such commands have to be enabled previously (or generically) in those fastboot protocol.

If you can communicate PC with the device , and there is not a locked, or restrictive bootloader, you could flash/boot to TWRP,
 

[Help] Unable to Unpack Boot.img Android Header Version 4​

Hi All! I've been trying at my best to unpack the boot.img of my device.
I want to Extract the ramdisk and prebuilt kernel but I failed to do the same multiple times as every tool I came across was too old to unpack the new header version 4. I'm sure there might be updated tools for the same and I want help regarding it!

I'm Okay with:
1. Providing the steps and unpacking it
or
2. Providing me the appropriate tools


Any help would be appreciated!
The boot.img is attached below in case any reference is required...

Hi to all.

Does anyone knows a trusty and free app that can copy/transfer any mobile phone like(Samsung, iphone, lg, sony, lenovo, xiaomi, huawei e.t.c.) to each other?
I mean i can copy/transfer pictures, videos, applications(If it possible with settings) and everything from one phone to another without the need of pc.

A lot of thanks for your time and your answers.
No one knows an app that work at any mobile phone???

Google backup does that. It used to be installed on every Android phone, but I don't know if it is anymore. You can check in settings > Google > backup. It may (and once again I'm not sure) need a Google One subscription now, but I've had Pixel devices now since the 2XL and so G Backup is pre-installed on my recent devices. Google One is a cheap easy way to do it. You can cancel your sub after your done saving and restoring your data if you want to.

You can read more about it here

I started in the first post with this, it´s not an issue fastboot related.
If you have the bootloader locked, how do you think to flash or boot an unsigned image? I mean, by normal means.
The most you could search for is a temp root exploit. Although there are recursive methods to flash an unofficial image, device won´t boot.

Correction: flash to fastbootd when using v4 That's taking the place of recovery mode. That's why there's no recovery.img. flash to both a/b unless it's just a single a partition. But I believe that's v3
So for Moto g 5g 2022, has v4. Flash to fastbootd to both a/b partitions. Check magisk 26.1 changelogs pertaining to versions of partions a or a/b for v3 and v4.had all four versions laid out for ya.

Is there a solid way to keep the 'beep' when the microphone activates when using google assistant? It seems that the new switch access doesn't fix it completely as it works for a while then either just stops or the switch acess just goes not responding. (I am on a Xiaomi/Black Shark device)

    Timestamps are always there.

    Here you can see with the automatic chat with HandCent, the conversation did group 6 messages, call them this, first screen, how all the times/dates can be displayed here?

    View attachment 5981155

    And here, that group opened, call them, second screen, all the timestamps are perfectly displayed. (it´s the free version)

    View attachment 5981153

    If what you´re looking for is that all the messages be displayed in the first screen, despite groups, or, that in the first screen, it shows the date, instead of a day of the week, it´s a different thing, this way, filtering your searching, you could find better feedback.

    PD. What many people are complaining is the lack of timestamp for every message, (in some messages app like from old version of Google), not the lack of timestamp at all, as you´re saying.
    Sorry for the late reply. Yes, that's what I meant, a timestamp for every message. I don't want just the occasional timestamp, I want them on all messages.

    Yes, HandCent Next can do it, and thank you for the screenshots! However as I had mentioned, it is subscription based (I don't want the free version as I don't want ads/trackers). I wasn't keen on paying every month if I can avoid it, and so I tried to find one that was just one payment/purchase. I ended up going with ChompSMS even though its timestamp implementation is a little ugly (centered at the top of each message, instead of at the bottom in a smaller font, but I guess it's the best option for me right now). Anyway I do appreciate the input! Thank you!

    Yeah, I'll look into that. Did you get it from your rom or smthng?
    Unpacked the system.img and copied. If you want i can share the images i dumped.

    i recommend you to use a device-tree near from your device, you copy it, then you adapt it to your device (change codename, manufacturer, screen size, CPU, etc....)
    Making a device-tree is a lot of copy from other device-tree, github commits, etc...
    Found an old laptop with an N3540 cpu, 4gb ram, 32gb ssd, 320gb hdd, should be sufficent. ( I hope )

    no i think try taking regular stock tree
    OK i'm keeping that in mind, it seems like even updsting language support, and pulling updates will take sooooo long. So, i have to learn to be patient i guess :)

    For Vendor , i only found LOS 15.1 source, i dont know if that will work.
    So it seems like if i want to make the recovery, i have to make the full OS too, kind of not what i expected.
    So now i need to make a choice to go full on with 7 or 8.1 considering 16GB storage is all that is available, with no expansion at all.

    Hello guys..:)
    I would like you to go through XDA new users guide and you must read the FORUM RULES before posting here or anywhere else on xda.

    The rate at which the new users are joining xda on daily basis is very high. A lot of users join because they have got some problems with their devices like bricked phone, bootloops etc. because of following incorrect processes. Some join to help out others, to share their knowledge and gain more.

    So basically this thread is for all of those who want to ask questions and answer those.


    So those who want to help here, just try to answer without flaming, let it be answered thousands of times earlier, show them the path, direction and let them do things on their own. Do not spoon feed, rather just try to point them to right direction.

    This whole idea is of @undercover and the former OP Bruce Wayne and I thank him.

    To The people asking questions here, don't forget to check for the links from 2nd post. That will help you increase your knowledge, and do answer the questions asked by others if you know the answer. Please don't simply say thanks if some member helps you, instead use the thanks button, that will help us keep this thread less cluttered.
